Hi all, I am setting up a script to record all the call. There are two app for recording. "Monitor" and "Mixmonitor", one mixing the audio on the fly and one mixing it at the end but also allow a option not to mixing the audio at all. If mixing the audio on the fly is not that taxing on the CPU, I would like to use 'mixmonitor' app. My question is, what is penalty on the CPU when mixing the audio on the fly? I know this is the better option, but I don't really need the 'in' and 'out' audio mixed until it's played back, and which happens less than 5% of the time. What are your thoughts? -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I'd say try it out and see what the CPU load is. It's not that hard to drop it in your dialplan and give it a try. It's much easier than figuring out all the possible variables in your setup that might also affect the performance. ________________________________ From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Wai Wu Sent: Monday, April 03, 2006 10:30 PM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Monitor or mixmonitor Hi all, I am setting up a script to record all the call.

I'm using MixMonitor. Be aware that some people encounter a bug where MixMonitor stops recording at random (see http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=6457). There are a couple of working patches for it.
